I recently decided to create a testing site for one of my community builder sites so that I can ensure that new updates will work with my add ons. so I downloaded all the files from the original website and uploaded them to the testing site, then exported all the database tables and imported them on the new site, then I made the needed changes to the joomla configuration file. So now the first page is working, joomla articles and the administrator login but when I try to log in using cb login to log into the front end I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in <span>/</span>home<span>/</span>uploadto/public_html/b2btesting/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_pmsuddeiminbox/pms.showinbox.php on line 1

any idea what step I missed?/how to fix this?

Hi kssuliv!

Don't know if it's a useful tip for you, but I've been "cloning" my site several times without any problems and my installation is stacked with plugins. UddeIM as well.

I use the free version of Akeeba back-up when I clone and re-install. It's really-really simple; even for a web-novice like my self

Well, might be worth a try if you don't get 'round your problem by other means?

Take care!
